What's an MLM Binary Plan?

By Jeromy Michaels


So you believe you are ready to start your new social marketing business and you've done your homework. Then when a person speaks to you about the compensation plan they mention the term MLM binary and you scratch your head - what does this mean?

You're not the only one to be confused. Most MLM compensation plans are incredibly difficult to comprehend unless you happen to be good at mathematics. MLM binary programs, fortunately , are a few of the easiest to understand.

So What is an MLM Binary Plan?

As everyone knows binary means 2. So you just have to think of everything in pairs. One of the first things that you're going to have to do when you begin building your new business is to recruit two new folks who also need to enjoy the financial liberty of MLM selling.

You'll sign these new folk up and they become your front line. This is your private line of backing and because this is a binary system they can then go out and hire two more folk each. No more. No less.

So now you have recruited two others into your front line, let's call them Dick and Jane. If they follow the plan Dick and Jane can then go out and sponsor two more folks and so it goes on, and everybody gets rich and achieves their goals. Unfortunately Dick and Jane won't be especially effective at MLM selling and this happens rather a lot.

Your next step will be to recruit more folks, but as you can only have 2 folks on your front line, the subsequent 2 sign ups have to either go under Dick or Jane or one can go under each. It's up to you to keep the legs balanced.

Now what's Binary Spillover?

Your two new recruits went into the downlines of Dick and Jane and that's simply what binary spillover means. You have helped them build their business by giving them the 1st folk in their downline. This is one of the huge advantages of the MLM binary plan and if you've an active up line, this is going to be happening all of the time and may help you to build your side of the business.

You don't stop there, you still need to continue to sponsor and hire a lot of people and keep balancing the 2 legs of the plan with the right folk because most plans only pay a commission when the product volumes balance. You may enjoy lots of spillover, but you'll only be compensated when you keep adding new people.

So though you believed you were ready to start your business this is another side that you should look at. It is not an issue of MLM binary being the right system for you, the question is how are you going to push your business to build your downline? You've got to have a plan to push your products and also your opportunity to others to build your business.

One question is should you use a web lead generation system and learn attraction promoting to build your business quicker and get more rewarding? What is your marketing budget?

Are you also aware that in MLM you will be looked up to as a leader by your downline, they're going to expect you to help them with their business and to reach their goals. Many individuals make plenty of money in the MLM business, so really it's not the compensation plan that's important. Your most important concern will be how to build your business quickly and effectively.
